History
Dr. Coronado has been practicing medicine for over 25 years. During most of that time, he focused on the treatment of the heart and arteries. Although he was primarily a cardiologist, over the years Dr. Coronado saw a tremendous vascular need in the venous world. Frustrated with not having an answer for the multitude of patients with leg swelling and painful varicose veins, he brought the treatment of venous disease into his already busy cardiology practice. Once he started treating vein patients, Dr. Coronado saw not only the number of patients needing treatment but also the number of healthcare providers that were unaware or misinformed regarding venous disease, he decided to close his successful cardiology practice in 2015 and move full-time into veins. We now have 4 centers spread across northern California and Dr. Coronado is considered a thought leader and a top educator nationwide in the diagnosis and treatment of varicose veins and venous insufficiency.
Specialties
Approximately 40 million Americans suffer from venous reflux disease, the underlying cause of varicose veins. Traditionally, treatments consisted of vein-stripping surgery; which required lengthy hospital stays, painful recoveries, and high complication rates with unpredictable results. Now with new proven technologies, patients can be treated with minimally invasive, office-based procedures that result in quicker recovery times, minor discomfort, if any, and coverage by most insurance companies.
